YOUR STRIDE
YOUR DATA
YOUR EDGE
Scorched Ice gives coaches and athletes objective, on-ice insight that transforms development, protects long-term health, and brings clarity to every return-to-play decision.
Currently only available for professional and elite use.
THE WORLD'S ONLY SKATING INTELLIGENCE PLATFORM
SYSTEMATIC DEVELOPMENT
By objectively measuring how each player skates, tracking how that movement changes over time, and giving coaches the evidence needed to plan, validate, and adjust development with intention rather than guesswork.
REDUCTION IN INJURY RISK
Helps reduce injury by revealing subtle changes in skating mechanics and load patterns early, allowing teams to intervene before fatigue and compensation turn into breakdowns.
DATA DRIVEN RETURN-TO-PLAY
Providing objective evidence that recovery is complete before full competition resumes by confirming that a player’s on-ice skating mechanics have truly returned to normal.
One Sensor on Each Skate
Because Hockey is a Bilateral Sport
With independent sensors on each skate, Scorched Ice can:
- Quantify true bilateral load and asymmetry
- Detect compensations that look “normal” in video and tracking data
- Understand how fatigue and injury affect each leg differently
Built for the Realities of Hockey
- Lightweight and unobtrusive
- Waterproof and game-ready
- Durable for daily use
- Long-lasting battery with simple charging
On-Ice Load
Measured where it’s created
The most complete picture of on-ice workload
In hockey, on-ice load isn’t just how much a player moves — it’s how each leg contributes to every stride, stop, and battle.
Scorched Ice measures on-ice load directly from both skates, capturing the true mechanical stress each leg experiences on the ice. By measuring left and right legs independently, we reveal workload patterns that single-sensor and position-based systems simply cannot see.
What Coaches and Players Gain
- Clear visibility into true on-ice workload
- Confidence that training stress is being captured completely
- Early insight into asymmetry and overload
- Better-informed decisions around practice intensity and recovery
Scorch Index
EVERY PLAYER SKATES DIFFERENTLY
That difference matters.
There is no single “ideal” skating stride in hockey. Each player’s mechanics are shaped by their body, position, history, and style of play.
Scorched Ice captures and learns how each individual player skates when they are healthy and performing normally — creating a personal reference point called a Skating Signature.
The SCORCH Index then tracks how much a player’s current skating deviates from that normal pattern, highlighting meaningful mechanical change over time.
The SCORCH Index is designed to surface:
- Emerging fatigue patterns
- Compensations between left and right legs
- Technique changes under load
- Incomplete mechanical recovery
Testimonials
Mark Messier
6x Stanley Cup Champion and Hockey Hall Of Fame
“I’m involved with Scorched Ice because I believe the technology can provide information and feedback to players about their skating stride and hockey skills, which helps all players focus on areas that need improvement”
Cassie Campbell-Pascall
2x Olympic Gold Medal Captain, IIHF Hockey Hall of Fame
“I’ve been involved in the development of the Scorched Ice because I believe that it is a great technology to help players improve their skating and have more fun playing hockey.”
Josh Morrissey
Winnipeg Jets, Team Canada
“Understanding how my stride changes, specifically asymmetries is vitally important to me and I can only get this information from Scorched Ice.”
